If C={x: x∈N and x≤5}, what are the elements of C?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C={1,2,3,4,5}
Using the usual school convention, N denotes the natural numbers 1, 2, 3, and so on. Applying x≤5 selects 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, with 5 included because the inequality is non-strict. Zero is excluded under this convention, and 6 or larger numbers fail the condition. Hence option B is correct.
